Story
The Metal Men had to opt for whatever work was available, Tonight we
find them on stage attempting to open a safe.

The Safe Opens

Lead is to soft to smash it open,
Mercury being a liquid tries to ooze in but the safe is air tight.
Tin tries by forming a key but he is to weak and his key bends but
it is a good idea so Platinum does the same and the door opens.
Lead, Tin and Mercury unload the Gold within and Iron and Gold shed
their disguises and the students go wild. The students are invited
to ask questions, one asks "What happened to Doc Magnus?" The Metal
Men go quiet and at last Tin replies, "we would rather not talk
about the Doc".

Insane Doc Magnus

Small wonder, the Docs brain has
becomes twisted by the dictator of Karnia and he seeks to destroy
everything especially the Metal Men and he is locked within a
government mental institution. Although insane he is taken to a
facility to create the ultimate Metal Man.

Weeks later the Metal
Men are trying to check into a hotel where a gun man bursts in, Iron
storms in and a stray bullet hits a guest. The Metal Men disable the
gun man but are asked to leave the hotel. Across the city Doc Magnus
unveils Plutonium Man a super powerful, super deadly Metal Man.
Behind lead glass shielding the project administrator asks for a
demo and Plutonium Man goes berserk and breaks free burning his way
out of the facility. The administrator turns out to be an agent of
Karnia but he did not expect Plutonium Man to
be sentient like the Metal Men.

Plutonium Man

The unstoppable element makes his way to Washington where he finds
the Metal Men, being partly Doc Magnus Plutonium Man can not
suppress his hatred and blasts out at them. Lead forms a shield to
stop it's rays but is shred like butter on a grill. Iron attacks and
is blinded and then his reaction tapes decay and he is helpless like
a drunk blind man. To deflect his rays Mercury slips under him and
Gold wraps him up but they can not stop the
Plutonium Man. Doc and the project administrator arrive and the
agent tries to stop Plutonium Man with steel sheathed slugs which
rip into Plutonium Mans innards sundering his fail safe system and
he goes critical. Platinum tries to contain the heat as he goes,
"china syndrome" melting into the pavement. Tina calls out as she
dies "Doc I Still Love You" as Plutonium Man blows up The Doc can
not even touch Tina's remains to say goodbye.

Aftermath: After a massive decontamination effort Doc Magnus
recovers himself and he decides to rebuild the Metal Men and his
life.
